household devices.

Once a number is in the Caller List, it can be manually or automatically edited
(to add or remove area codes or prefixes), saved in the Phone Book, or deleted.
Shared Phone Book:
You can store up to 3050 names and phone numbers into the shared Phone Book. Any handset registered to the base unit can use the shared phonebook, however only one person can access the shared phonebook
at a time. The directory names are sorted
alphabetically. You can enter names up to 16 characters, and enter phone
numbers up to 32 digits. A pause can be entered in the phone number if required
for dialing. Each pause is stored as one digit, and the pause is approximately
3.5 seconds.

numbers.

Silent
Mode: You can select a period of time during which the handset will not ring for outside calls. This is useful for time periods when you do not want to be disturbed, such as while sleeping. The
Silent Mode can be set for each handset independently. In the menu, you can turn the Silent Mode on and off, and set the start and end time of the Silent Mode.
Mute/Hold:
This system features both a Mute
key and a Hold feature on the cordless handset and base. If you wish to
temporarily mute the conversation, you can mute the handset so the other party
cannot hear you, but you can still hear the other party. You can put the call on
Hold for up to 10 minutes. After 9 minutes, the handset will sound an alarm
tone, after another minute, the call is disconnected.
